Are Young Jews and Older Jews Alike?
Jews ages 18 to 29 are just as likely as those 65 and older to say they attend religious services at least monthly (22 percent each) and about as likely to say they believe in God or some other higher power (76 percent and 72 percent). But that’s only part of the story. On many other issues, America’s youngest and oldest Jewish adults are very different.
